DREAM PALMS

 Here you can see the painting of four unique palm trees with details of the leaves, the painting was created on the iPad on site in the city of Angels. This piece is part of a series of finely detailed digital paintings depicting the palm tree as integral to the unique California landscape.

I have always loved painting palm trees and trying to capture the feeling of the slender trunks and spindly fronds.

The palm tree has the scientific term of Arecaceae and is part of family of perennial flowering plants in the monocot order Arecales.

Palms are among the best known and most extensively cultivated plant families. In many historical cultures, palms were symbols or icons for such ideas as victory, peace and fertility.
